Dental Implants:
A long-lasting solution

The absence of one or more teeth can cause various aesthetic, chewing, and speech articulation issues.

Dental implants provide a fixed, secure, and durable solution for rehabilitating the dentition of every patient, eliminating the need for removable dentures.

What are dental implants?

They are small artificial titanium roots that, in traditional implantology, are placed in the maxillary or mandibular bone of the patient, serving as support for the fixed prosthesis.

How many implant rehabilitation techniques exist?

In our clinic, we offer various implant rehabilitation methods. The most suitable technique will be determined based on each patient’s specific situation.

4 fixed implant-supported prostheses:

The 4 fixed implant-supported prostheses are an ideal option for replacing an entire missing dental arch. During this type of treatment, four titanium dental implants are inserted into the bone and function as support roots for a fixed prosthesis. This technique offers an aesthetic and functional solution for patients who have lost multiple teeth, allowing them to chew and speak with ease.

Zygomatic implants:

Zygomatic implantology is a useful technique for replacing missing teeth when the amount of bone tissue is insufficient for traditional dental implants. This technique utilizes zygomatic implants, which are longer and inserted into the zygomatic bone, which, due to its conformation, does not undergo resorption. In our Dental Clinic, you will find a highly skilled team ready to undertake even the most complex procedures with the utmost professionalism.

Flapless implants:

Flapless implantology is a minimally invasive technique that does not involve the use of scalpels or sutures. It is performed using a surgical guide, which allows the professional to precisely position the dental implants without incisions. The main advantages of flapless implantology include:

Faster healing times
Reduced risk of infections
Increased patient comfort

Computer-guided implantology:

Each dental implant procedure is meticulously planned using computer-guided techniques. This innovative method allows the professional to pre-plan the entire process of implant insertion using specialized software. By doing so, the position and inclination of the dental implants can be determined in advance. The main advantages of this approach include a reduced risk of errors, increased predictability of results, decreased likelihood of complications, and enhanced precision in implant placement.

Is dental implant surgery painful?

The entire procedure is performed under local anesthetic, ensuring that the patient does not experience any pain. Once the procedure has been completed, some discomfort and swelling may manifest in the area, particularly in the days after surgery. However, these are temporary disturbances that will abate on their own. If the pain persists you should contact the clinic for a follow-up visit.

Dr. Mintrone’s approach to implantology

In the field of implantology, Dr. Mintrone adopts an analytical approach based on a scientific method, as he is a believer in aesthetics as a fundamental element in oral rehabilitation. Implant planning requires a certain amount of acumen, and the expertise of the professional plays a key role in achieving aesthetically perfect results. In collaboration with Fradeani Education, Dr. Mintrone has developed the Get Up app, which guides specialists in the aesthetic approach to oral rehabilitation using an iPad. This tool helps develop a feel for aesthetics and specific aptitude in the field.

The fundamental element of this approach is the aesthetic analysis, which is based on structural guidelines of the face. First and foremost, it is important to make the patient smile and perform various expressions that are necessary for customizing the project, including the pronunciation of specific letters such as “F” or others that expose the incisors.

This aesthetic analysis is not based on assumptions but on tracing fundamental lines of the face, following a very precise analytical approach. Thanks to the use of scanning technologies such as Face Hunter, Dr. Mintrone implements extremely thorough aesthetic analysis.

Throughout the process, the work is team-oriented, and communication takes place through a single integrated software, ensuring clarity and eliminating personal interpretation. This approach, in addition to enabling the perfect functionality of implants and prosthetics, also considers the overall aesthetics of the smile, such as incisor length and lip progression.
